Looks great! Those 20's make your X5 look aggresive! I guess you'll keep your other wheels for a winter set-up?

I'll drop it for him on the way to the June 6 meet!

87s looking great! Might join the club later but for now can't let go of the M5 reps - love them too much (even scratched)!

I'm sure he wishes that your GT1 wizardry could help his lowering needs but his X5 has springs on all corners.

x5meister, NS, ///Michelle, Rod, Essam, Rich, Eugene, Wil, Ron, Rasta, Franc, Jose - thanks for the compliment...

Zuraxus - thanks for the advise, yeah i need those 17s during winter as i always go to mountain creek and camelback to ride my boards...

Ralphy - im keeping my 17s for the winter, as we get a good amount of snow here in NorthEast during winter. My 2 sons and CFO always ride with me during weekends so safety is top priority....

after researching about lowering kits, i think Eibachs are better than H&Rs as eibach are less stiff and bumpy. so for those who has Eibachs, how is it? how much for the install?
